Major News

Ticket Out Studios is going live! TicketOutStudios.com launched yesterday morning, although it's still under construction, there is at least a mockup for the site. Our first ever purchasable products are available in the form of a Cafe Press page, and very soon we will have purchasable content up on Amazon as well. The cafe press shirts are currently sporting a sweet, sweet BRINE logo on 'em, and they are, as they say in the Good Book, "freakin' awesome. The book going up on Amazon can be previewed in rough form on the TO website. It's a children's book about mudpuppies.

More Artwork

I'm trying to practice doing more environment designs. This began as just some doodling in Painter, but I kind of like the moodiness of it. The buildings ended up reminding me a bit of certain parts of the game Riven--which I used to love to play, so i guess its resurfacing here some how. Anyhow, it wasn't intentional.

Corel Painter X

I've been a fan of Painter for awhile now. I bought Painter 8 for a freelance job almost five years ago (my first job actually...an ill fated affair to say the least), and I haven't felt the need to keep it particularly up to date. It served a lot of needs for drawing and painting digitally. But I just this evening broke down and upgraded to version ten, and I gotta say, most of the improvements are subtle, but noticeable. Brushes seem a bit more fluid. I'm impressed. Painter, to me, always seemed just a bit more direct than Photoshop, when it comes to using the program to draw. Of course, this is only natural. Photoshop wasn't really intended for painting. And this only solidifies my impression. So, here without any further adieu is some art by EEK using Painter X:

A Little More Soft Body Dynamics

So, the next episode of Brine, involves a fire breathing dragon, with wings. I'm working on creating a fluid dynamics animation for a different part, and that was the previous post, but this here is a test of linkages for the wings on our creature. Interesting, no?
